Title: As common as muck
Post by: Highlander on February 19, 2010, 21:39:22 PM: Sir Nicholas Winterton thinks that people who travel in standard class are a "different" type of person. The inference of course is that such people are "common".

So what do you do that would make the Tory muppet think that you are common.

Post by: Highlander on February 20, 2010, 17:18:06 PM: I'm common because:

I wear brown socks with black trousers.
I have my tea in the evening not diner.
I can name four East Enders characters.
I swear in public.
I don't have a second name as my first name (eg Findlay, Crawford).
We have a living room not a lounge

But I may be posh because:.

I went to a Grammar School
I don't wear black socks with open toed sandals.
I don't have a 46" television.
I have never owned a shell suit or shopped in my pj's

I do have one or two secrets Jacqui but I can assure being English isn't one of them :D

Yes, it is sometimes called supper, but more often than not that's what I turn into after I've had my tea :)

My most common as muck thing is having a good old root around T.K.Maxx for bargains... I am hooked.
